💡 Tips for Best Texture

• If batter feels too thick, add 2–3 tbsp extra milk.

• For extra sweetness, add 1 mashed ripe banana.

• For a softer cake, soak raisins & apricots 5 minutes in warm water.

Q1: Is this cake really sweet without sugar?

Yes 😊 The natural sweetness comes from apple, apricots, and raisins. If you prefer sweeter, add banana or a little honey.

Q2: Can I make it vegan?

Yes. Replace:

• Eggs → 2 flax eggs (2 tbsp flaxseed + 6 tbsp water, rest 10 min)

• Use plant-based milk

Q3: Can I skip the apple?

Yes, but replace it with:

• ½ cup mashed banana OR

• ½ cup unsweetened applesauce

Q4: How do I store it?

• Room temperature: 1 day (covered)

• Fridge: up to 5 days

• Freezer: up to 2 months (slice before freezing)

Q5: Can I make muffins instead?

Yes! Pour into muffin tins and bake for 20–25 minutes.
